By / 05/06/2024

Lando Norris etched his name in Formula 1 history, claiming his first ever grand prix victory in a thrilling Miami Grand Prix. The young McLaren driver capitalized on a perfectly timed pitstop during a safety car period, leaving championship leader Max Verstappen and the rest of the field in his wake.

The race began with chaos, as Sergio Perez stalled on the grid, triggering a domino effect that shuffled the order. Oscar Piastri, who started third, found himself unexpectedly in second place behind Verstappen. The early laps saw Leclerc and Sainz battle for position, keeping the midfield action lively.

"About time huh?! What a race. It's been a long time coming, at last I've been able to do it for my team and deliver for them. It was a long race, the whole weekend has been good with some little setbacks along the way.

As pitstops began around lap 20, varying strategies came into play. McLaren’s gamble with Norris proved decisive. He stayed out longer, emerging ahead of the pack after the safety car period, while others who pitted earlier, like Perez, fell behind.
